just installed G! on a HP Omnibook 500

3,128Mb Ram,hd=10G
Did the full monty,from scratch from the internet,compiling included.everything worked,Ijust do not get the system booting.The messages I get are:
Booting Gentoo Linux 2.6.3
root(hd 0,0) Filesystem type=ext2fs,partition type 0X83
Kernel/kernel-2.6.3 root=/dev/ram0 init=/linuxrc realboot=/dev/hda3
Error15:file not found

I followed the manual exactly to the letter,just adapting for my own situation,thoroughly checked and rechecked everything but the system does not boot8
Any suggestion?

Just guessing, but shouldn't it be:
Kernel/linux-2.6.3 root=/dev/ram0 init=/linuxrc realboot=/dev/hda3

The problem is solved now(well,I got other ones now).
I had to type in the complete name 2.6.3 etc....
The "kernel" word was correct,not "Linux3
